Improved image analysis: maximised statistical use of geometry/shape constraints (DP130102524)
Prof. David Suter and Dr Tat-Jun Chin have been awarded a 3 year ARC Discovery Grant valued at $330,000. This project will improve image analysis to apply such applications as 3D street-scape reconstruction, synthetic inserts into video for special effects, autonomous navigation, and scene understanding. It will do so by maximally exploiting the geometry of […]
